Orlando, Florida Book Signing

A couple of updates :) The signing will be in Orlando, Florida at the Courtyard Marriot on International Drive on November 5, 2012 at 2pm. There will be a Q&A session as well as a giveaway.

We will have a few books on hand to give away :) We hope to see you there… Read More

I'm posting a list here of things that you might help you avoid problems later on. I… Read More

There’s something wrong with my new car radio……..

My new car radio looks mighty pretty :)

Paying it Forward

For months now I've been planning on getting a new radio for my car and like most single mothers, I had to budget for it. Well, the time to pick out a new radio finally came and I was pretty excited to have a CD player or even a satellite radio to listen to while I chauffeur my children around.

I was all set to look around today since I… Read More
